About Geoapify

Geoapify provides a suite of location-based APIs covering mapping, geocoding, routing, places, analytics, and batch processing. The platform includes map tile rendering, static map generation, and marker icon creation for building interactive map interfaces. Address-related services convert addresses to coordinates and back, support autocomplete for address input, and resolve location by IP.

The routing group covers directions, travel-time and distance matrices, GPS track matching to roads, and multi-stop route optimization for logistics and dispatch use cases. Places APIs support point-of-interest search, place detail lookup, postcode queries, and administrative boundary retrieval. Analytics APIs calculate isochrones and isodistances for reachability analysis, along with elevation data for terrain workflows.

Access is via HTTP endpoints returning JSON, with a Playground for testing requests without registration, documentation for each API, and SDKs including npm packages for geocoder autocomplete, request rate limiting, and route planning. A Batch API supports asynchronous processing of high-volume jobs, including geocoding up to 1000 addresses at once. Pricing is credit-based, tied to which APIs are used and request volume, with a free tier available for evaluation and some production use.
